Time-traveling island
Chapter 25 The Gift
The projector was turned off, but Lü Tianshou's expression was still excited. He said to Lin An, "What else do you need? Tell me everything, and I'll contact the leader's secretary later to buy it all in China and bring it on the ship!"
Because Lü Tianshou was on the drilling platform, he just received instructions from his superiors to fully cooperate with Lin An.
"I don't really want anything special, just bring me some personal items."
Lin An laughed, then said to them, "What about you? There are plenty of delicious food and fun things to do on Earth. Just tell me what you want, and I'll pay!"
He earned two billion from this deal, plus several ships' worth of supplies, and now he's getting a little overconfident.
Su Zhuoyao smiled and said, "I am completely unfamiliar with Earth. Young master, please pay for me. I don't know what I want to buy. Just like you, I want some 'personal necessities,' plus some jewelry and clothes."
"I want jewelry too!" Su Zhenzhen exclaimed.
Su Zhuoyao glanced at her and snorted, "I'm only asking to spend the young master's money because I helped him. You didn't contribute a single bit, so how dare you ask?"
Su Zhenzhen turned to Lin An and smiled, "I'll help you in the future, young master. How about you let me pay on credit first?"
She looked like a lively young girl, and when she acted coquettishly towards Lin An, her charming and bright expression left Song Quan and the other single men speechless.
Lin An, of course, couldn't resist either, and gave her a million-dollar limit, telling her to buy whatever she wanted—although Su Zhenzhen couldn't buy it herself, she could only convey that she wanted to spend a million on jewelry and clothes.
"Would Wanxiu like it?" Lin An asked the young lady from the Shun Kingdom with a low chuckle.
"……want."
Originally, she wanted to refuse on the grounds that she had not done anything to deserve such a gift, but when she saw that Su Zhuoyao and Su Zhenzhen had both spent the young master's money, Wang Wanxiu suddenly felt a strange feeling. It was as if if she didn't accept the young master's gift, she would become estranged from Young Master Lin from then on.
Since the Su sisters have both received gifts, she wants one too!
Wang Wanxiu glanced down at her coarse linen clothes and said softly, "Young master, could you please find me some fabric? I'll ask Zhishu to borrow needles and thread so I can make a few clothes."
Lin An asked, "You want to make your own clothes? No need to bother, there are ready-made ones... Never mind, besides clothes and jewelry, I'll have someone get you some fabric too."
He figured Wang Wanxiu might not like modern girls' dresses, so he decided to get some of them all.
The island is currently facing a severe shortage of supplies, so the supplies that have been brought here will not be wasted.
"Miss Lily, what about you?" Lin An asked the elves, asking what they wanted to buy.
Amberley shook her head slightly and said softly, "I don't particularly want any gift, but I'd like to learn your language. Could you buy me some books related to language and writing?"
"good!"
Lin An readily agreed.
The remaining elves, Eling and Sana, hesitated for a moment before asking him for some seeds from Earth, intending to take them back to the Elf Kingdom to try planting them.
As for Dwayne, he only said thank you coldly and did not accept his gift.
Lin An didn't say anything. After chatting with President Lü and the others for a while, he got up and went to his dormitory to pack his things and leave.
"Brother Song, could you get me a piece of paper? I need to write a resignation letter."
Lin An smiled.
Whether I resign or not doesn't matter anymore.
"I'll go right away!" Song Quan quickly went to find paper and pen.
Lin An went out, accompanied by Wang Wanxiu and her group. Lü Tianshou, Manager Liu, and others followed behind, chatting enthusiastically to make conversation.
"Awooo~~" The giant octopus on the sea surface saw Lin An's figure appear on the corridor and immediately cried out, and tried to climb onto the platform again.
"Get down, get down, get down now! The platform can't support your size!"
The people on the drilling platform shouted quickly.
Compared to not long ago, they are no longer afraid of this deep-sea behemoth—because they have encountered even more amazing visitors from another world and alien spaceships.
The giant octopus continued to crawl until Lin An called out, at which point it reluctantly released its tentacles and fell into the sea, splashing up a huge wave.
Su Zhuoyao glanced at it and smiled, "The little fish demon has become intelligent; we should name her Zhenzhen. You teach her!"
"Why me again?! I'm not going, I want to play!"
Su Zhenzhen immediately protested, which shows that her sister often arranged for her to teach the little monsters who had just developed consciousness.
"There's no one else here but you," Su Zhuoyao said as she followed Lin An's footsteps. Walking on this steel island, she found it particularly interesting.
Even my mother-in-law never mentioned such a place!
"I'll call the monk, the dog, and the flowers over!" Su Zhenzhen said.
No one knew who he was, and they didn't ask any questions. They went to Lin An's dormitory with him.
Several elves stood on the platform looking at the sea, accompanied by Manager Liu and others. Only Wang Wanxiu and a few others followed Lin An into the dormitory to see the place where he used to live.
"There's nothing to see here. I'll pack up and leave."
Lin An took out a backpack from the closet and put his clothes, toothbrush and other things inside. No one asked him to, but Wang Wanxiu took the initiative to fold the quilt for him, hugged the quilt to her arms and took it with him.
Seeing this, Lin An was deeply moved. Wanxiu was such a virtuous and sensible girl. If she were willing to stay on the island, he would ask her if she would be willing to be his assistant.
Or something else.
Marry her?
According to the customs of Shun Kingdom, Wang Wanxiu had reached the age for marriage.
But that definitely wouldn't work in modern times.
"Does the young master have anything else?" Sensing Lin An's gaze, Wang Wanxiu smiled at him, her thin face particularly endearing.
"That's it. My phone fell into the sea, and the rest of my things aren't worth much."
Lin An can even throw away his ID card now, since he doesn't need it anymore.
For example, the billion yuan that the leader just gave him was deposited into a new bank card, and will be handed over to him when the supplies arrive.
But Lin An had nowhere to use this bank card; if he wanted to spend money, he still had to go through the secretary's office.
He doesn't plan to return to China or go to any other country until he ensures his own safety; he will stay on the island.
"Let's go back."
Lin An greeted them, and under the watchful eyes of Song Quan, General Manager Lü, and others, the landing ship slowly rose, its hatch level with the corridor, allowing them to step inside.
Su Zhuoyao went in first, followed by Wang Wanxiu. She was weak, and Lin An supported her arm to help her step over the railing.
The rest of the people also boarded the landing ship one by one.
"Lin An, the satellite phone is yours now. Just let me know if you need any supplies!"
Mr. Lü reluctantly pulled him aside and said a few words.
Seeing that his former colleague was really leaving, Song Quan knew this was his last chance, so he quickly said, "Brother Lin, if there are any positions that need hiring or anything we can help with, just let us know!"
He wanted to use connections to change the fate of working people, but he was too embarrassed to be too direct.
"Yeah, Brother Lin, remember us when the island is developed! We'd even be happy to have a security guard position reserved for us!"
Jiang Tianheng and the others also said, half-jokingly.
Lin An understood what they meant and smiled, "Yes, if there are any positions that need people, we will invite you first. Salary is negotiable."
He doesn't know what kind of person he needs to do what kind of work, so he's just taking it one step at a time.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the landing ship descended to the sea surface. After the giant octopus climbed ashore and settled down, it accelerated in an instant and disappeared from their sight in the blink of an eye.
"hiss!"
"Alien technology is truly amazing!"
"Lin An is so lucky. Why wasn't it me who fell into the sea the night before last?"
"Heh, if you fell into the sea, you'd be feeding octopuses by now!"
